Welcome to my blog - I am a mixed media artist mainly working in acrylic paint, and adding paper, inks, glitter, impasto, sand, beads, pastels and whatever takes my fancy! I also create watercolour and ink illustrations, which can be bought unframed, and are also made into greeting cards. I take commissions, if you want something that may have already sold, or you would like something original or in another size or colour.

Busy Bee....

Good evening everyone! I haven't posted anything on here for awhile, as I have been busy over the last couple of weeks. Lots of artwork going out of the studio (just fabulous!!) a couple of children's workshops and lots of creating going on!

This set of two was one of my favourites which a friend of mine has bought - I will get to catch up with her when she comes to pick it up at the end of the month. I love the reds and pinks in this one.

I had a couple of children's workshop that I ran in the school holidays, and the kids made a version of this little one. Lots of glitter and pink and they loved it!!

This mixed media on canvas of houses went off to The Netherlands with the flower one below, this week. Im hoping that they arrive safely soon, and their new owners loved them as much as I loved making them :)

This Red Poppy mixed media went out the door in my studio on Saturday for a birthday present for a person with the same name as the flower!! Very appropriate gift I'de say!!

I will be sending a print of this one off to the UK this week, and a lucky giveaway from my facebook page! https://www.facebook.com/pages/Made-By-Me-Julie-Ryder-Mixed-Media-Artist/336240246440715

I've had a great time giving away stuff for all my loyal followers on Facebook. Its a really great feeling to give something to someone who really appreciates the work that I do.
